Jason and Mike sit down for the first time in a while to recap where they've been and how the rest of the DAWless year went for each of them.

We talk taking breaks and hitting the nature scene.

Jason and Mike take a trip down memory lane. Jason realizes that maybe he's been in a mid-life crisis and Mike tries to talk him off the ledge.

Mike and Jason talk about the cost of going DAWless.

We're going Dawless (as you already know) and so we're sitting down and mapping out some guidelines for our year of recording without computers.

We open a new season of Analog Thoughts in a Digital World with a plan, we're going dawless for the entirety of 2021.

I've been doing something called Morning Pages for the past year. It's a daily writing practice with a lot of benefits. This is a bonus episode of Analog Thoughts; not sure if we'll be doing anything on a regular basis but it's the unofficial start of Season 3. Enjoy!
